In Celebration of International Women's Day

I try to recreate what is

and what was

holding on to the good

reframing the bad

recycle, reuse

shards of mosaic glass

under my feet in the garden

Eight women explore self-expression, love and loss, raising families, and growing older with grace, anger, honesty, and power.

Featuring poetry and short stories from Michelle Lee, Dakoda Foxx, Jennifer DiMarco, Bree Indigo, Jonielle McMurtrey, Phoenix Noel, Sheila Mengert, and Elizabeth Wong, Rise Recreation is a raw, authentic collection where ten women become one and speak to us all.

Proceeds from this volume will be donated to S. T. E. A. M. (Science Technology Engineering Art Math) projects for girls and young women sponsored by the 501(c)3 nonprofit Blue Forge Group.
